Fate's Curse.

The Kismet Empire. An empire of humans is capable of manipulating a supernatural life source dormant within everyone aptly named Fate. Amid the five kingdoms assembling the continent is none other than the Capital kingdom Barronia, headed by the almighty Supreme and wearer of Fate's Crown: King Barron. One night, an assassination attempt is carried out against the King, and even more so than that-the perpetrators are part of his very own assassination group: the Syndicate of Dictation.

A former Syndicate agent, Talen Amit, wielder of the all-powerful Unconquerable technique, is made the conspiracy's prime suspect. After a decade of inactivity, Talen returns to the King's aid to help determine the usurper's identity. While investigating, Talen discovers an unbearable truth and must come to terms with the fact that his long-thought-dead best friend, Uriel Barron, might just be the true culprit.

In the end, Uriel intends to dethrone the King and take his father's place as Kismet's true leader. To anyone who threatens his dream, he could only remember the vow ten years ago.

'I don't like monsters. That's the truth I chose.'

Will Talen and Uriel get to meet ten years following the Prince's supposed demise? Everything moves with Fate's destined flow. That is the way of the Kismet Empire.
